Q: Are hemp foods legal to import, buy and consume in the United States?
A: Yes. The case HIA v DEA established that hemp foods are exempt from control in the Controlled Substances Act. An excellent overview of the case can be found on the Vote Hemp web site on their DEA Hemp Food Rules page. The Ninth Circuit Court of Appeals opinion invalidating DEA final rules can be downloaded here.

Q: If I recently consumed hemp foods, could I fail a drug test?
A. Our organic, premium hemp comes from one of the largest suppliers in Canada. Both the Canadian and US governments have strict regulations on THC levels in industrial and food grade hemp. Our hemp is regularly tested and the labs consistently come up with “non-detectable” amounts of THC, which means the levels are virtually nonexistent and less than 1 part per billion. Lean Hemp does not contain THC, does not make you high, and will not trigger a positive result in drug testing.

Q: What is the difference between hemp and marijuana?
A: Marijuana and hemp both come from the same species of plant, Cannabis sativa L., but from different varieties. There are different varieties of Cannabis, just as Chihuahuas and St. Bernards are different breeds of dogs; etc.

Marijuana is the flowering tops and leaves of psychoactive varieties of Cannabis that are grown for their high THC content.

Hemp, also referred to as industrial hemp, are extremely low-THC varieties of Cannabis that are grown for their seeds and fiber. Hemp is grown legally in just about every industrialized country except the USA.

Since 2014 it is actually legal to grow hemp (for research purposes) in several US states.
